Summary: This information collection
consolidates provisions for
documenting qualifications,
inspections, tests, and approvals
pertaining to the manufacture and use of
portable tanks and intermediate bulk
containers under various provisions of
the HMR. It is necessary to ascertain

These meter provers consist of a gauge
and several pipes that always contain
small amounts of the liquid hazardous
material in the pipes as residual
material and, therefore, must be
inspected and maintained in accordance
with the HMR to ensure they are in
proper calibration and working order.
These meter provers are not subject to
the specification testing and inspection
requirements in 49 CFR part 178.
However, these meter provers must be
visually inspected annually and
hydrostatic pressure tested every 5 years
in order to ensure they are properly
working as specified in 49 CFR 173.5a
of the HMR. Therefore, this information
collection requires that:
(1) Each meter prover must undergo
and pass an external visual inspection
annually to ensure that the meter
provers used in the flow of liquid
hazardous materials into bulk

packagings are accurate and in
conformance with the performance
standards in the HMR.
(2) Each meter prover must undergo
and pass a hydrostatic pressure test at
least every 5 years to ensure that the
meter provers used in the flow of liquid
hazardous materials into bulk
packagings are accurate and in
conformance with the performance
standards in the HMR.
(3) Each meter prover must
successfully complete the test and
inspection and must be marked in
accordance with 49 CFR 180.415(b) and
173.5a.
(4) Each owner must retain a record
of the most recent visual inspection and
pressure test until the meter prover is
requalified.
